1. Structure of Arylformamidase
Arylformamidase
The image above shows the chains A (upper right), B (upper left), C (lower right) & D (lower left) interacting. The molecules in the middle of chains A & B and chains C & D is phosphate ion (PO4). The green molecule between chain B & D is a magnesium ion (Mg).
Chain A of arylformamidase
The red molecule in the middle is an unknown ligand containing a ring composed of 9 oxygen molecules. The green sphere is a chloride ion.
2. Putative Thioesterase
Thioesterases split ester groups into acid and alcohol in the presence of water, specifically at a thiol group.
Thioesterases or thiolester hydrolases are members of E.C.3.1.2.
Our structure resembles carboxylesterases (hydrolases) hence it is predicted that it has similar cellular activity.
